Lower tie bar, strut bars, etc...

Will installing these suspension products cause camber wear/negative camber? will it affect my factory warranty? I'm tryn to do as much suspension work as I can w/o sacraficing the ride or alignment. I don't plan to lower my car either. I plan on trading in the car in another year or so, so I don't wanna lose a $hit load of money b/c I modded the car like I did to my last two cars.

thanks,
Steve

You answered your own question. If you plan on selling it in a year or so, then save your money and get a better car when you do

Or sell your car to someone in SoCal...modded civics carry a premium there.

If I have the money to spend then why not spend it? Whats wrong w/ slightly improving the handling on my current vehicle?

No...upper strut and lower tie bars do not cause any changes to the camber settings, and since you're not planning to drop your car, you should be ok.

As for the warranty...you better ask your dealer...mine says that as long as the car can be returned to its original state and no suspension problems can be traced to the mods, it is okay.

Hope that helps...

It shouldn't mess up the warranty. To be on the safe side when yuo go in for checkup or maintanence just take off the strut bars.
